MCDONALD’S WENT GAY IN FRANCE. THE AD IS ACTUALLY QUITE POWERFUL. IT SPEAKS VOLUMES OF COMMERCIALISM AND THE WAY IN WHICH “GAY-AS-COOL” HAS PENENTRATED THE MAINFRAME, WELL THE EUROPEAN MAINFRAME AT LEAST. IT IS OBVIOUSLY MEANT TO CAUSE CONVERSATION, HOWEVER, I HIGHLY DOUBT THIS KIND OF AD WILL GET MUCH ATTENTION IN FRANCE. WITH THAT [...]

THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PICTURE THAT MAKES ME FEEL JUST A LITTLE BIT AWKWARD. IT REMINDS ME OF KING KONG. I FIND IT RACIST. IN THE MOVIE INGLORIOUS BASTARDS THEY PLAY THE “GUESS WHO I AM GAME.” YOU PUT THE NAME OF SOMEONE FAMOUS ON YOUR FOREHEAD AND THEN YOU ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT WHO [...]

AN OFFICIAL VIDEO FOR MJ’S SONG “THIS IS IT.” I DON’T REALLY UNDERSTAND WHY THIS SONG HAS GARNERED SO MUCH ATTENTION FROM THE MJ CAMP. WHY WAS IT CHOSEN TO BE RELEASED? IS IT MERELY BECAUSE OF THE COINCIDENCES OF THE NAME OF THE TOUR, THE SONG, AND THAT MJ HAS NOW PASSED. THE SONG [...]

The internet chapter of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, a secret copyright treaty whose text Obama’s administration refused to disclose due to “national security” concerns, has leaked. It’s bad. It says: * That ISPs have to proactively police copyright on user-contributed material. This means that it will be impossible to run a service like Flickr or [...]

MAINE REJECTED GAY MARRIAGE. IT IS UNNERVING TO THINK THAT A STATE, SO EMBEDDED, IN THE NORTHEAST, SUCH A PRO-GAY PART OF OUR COUNTRY, WOULD BE SO INCREDIBLY CLOSE-MINDED AND EVIL. HATRED WON TODAY. MY ADVICE, IS TO PUT ANOTHER REFERENDUM ON THE BALLOT, ASAP, AND KEEP HITTING THEM, TILL THEY GIVE IN!
IT’S WAR.

OBAMA WON THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE AND EVERYONE IS ASKING: “FOR WHAT?” “WOW, IS HE SUPERMAN OR SOMETHING?” I DON’T THINK PEOPLE FULLY GRASP THE SIGNIFICANCE OF A BLACK MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE, OF A HISTORIC PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN, OF THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE AMERICAN VOCABULARY TO EVEN INCLUDE WORDS LIKE PEACE AND COMPROMISE. THE [...]

A JAPANESE WOMAN AND AFRICAN-AMERICAN WOMEN GOT INTO A FIGHT ON A BUS IN SAN FRANCISCO. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY, IT’S HARD TO TELL FROM THE VIDEO, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THE AA WOMAN STARTED THE FIGHT, PROBABLY AS A RESULT OF A MISUNDERSTANDING, THEN SHE THREW A PUNCH AND THE ASIAN WOMAN WENT [...]
